The work of preparing International Standards is

21、normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part

22、in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular

23、 the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this do

28、ailable for the determination of flammability by oxygen index (OI) (see ISO 4589-2) to typical elevated temperatures to which a plastic material can be exposed in a service situation. It also provides a method for determining the temperature at which combustion of a small bar of material is just sup

29、ported in air under certain test conditions; the resulting temperature is termed the flammability temperature.This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 4589-2 which describes the basic OI test method.Results obtained in accordance with this document are not applicable to describe

30、or appraise the fire hazard presented by a particular material or shape under actual fire conditions, unless used as one element of a fire risk assessment which takes into account all of the factors which are pertinent to the assessment of the fire hazard of a particular application for the material

32、hat will support combustion of small vertical test specimens under specified test conditions over a range of temperatures between 25 C and 150 C. The range of temperatures is typically between 40 C and 150 C. The results are defined as temperature index values at the test temperature, which is typic

33、al of the practical temperature that a plastic material can experience in an overheated service situation.Methods are provided for testing materials that are self-supporting at the test temperature in the form of vertical bars or sheet up to 10,5 mm thick. However, they are not applicable to form V

34、which requires a supporting frame as defined in ISO 4589-2:2017, Table 2. These methods are suitable for solid, laminated or cellular materials characterized by an apparent density 100 kg/m3or higher. The methods are also applicable to some cellular materials having an apparent density of less than

35、100 kg/m3. A method is provided for testing flexible sheet or film materials while supported vertically.This document also includes a method (see Annex A) for determining the temperature at which the OI of small vertical test specimens in air is 20,9 % under specified test conditions. The temperatur

36、e at which this occurs is defined as the flammability temperature (FT) and the method is limited to the determination of temperatures less than 400 C. The method is not applicable to materials having an OI of 5 C may be used to establish an approximate value of FT.A.5.2 Determine at least three valu

37、es for the FT of the material by carrying out the procedure from A.1.3 to A.5.1 inclusive at least three times.A.5.3 Calculate and record the FT of the material as the mean value of the three or more values determined in accordance with A.5.2. Express it as the mean value when rounded to the nearest

38、 1 C, with an exactly intermediate result being rounded downwards.A.6 Test reportThe test report shall include the following information:a) a reference to this document, i.e. ISO 4589-3; ISO 2017 All rights reserved 13BS EN ISO 4589-3:2017ISO 45893:2017(E)b) a statement that the test results relate

39、only to the behaviour of the test specimens under the conditions of this test and that these results are not to be used to infer the fire hazards of the material in other forms or under other fire conditions;c) all details necessary for identification of the material tested, including, where relevan

40、t, the type of material, its density, its previous history and the specimen orientation with respect to any anisotropy in the material or sample;d) the test specimen form (I, II, III, IV or VI) and dimensions;e) the method of specimen support, e.g. self-supporting or by use of nickel-chromium alloy

41、wire;f) the igniter used, if other than the standard propane flame;g) the flammability temperature;h) a description of any relevant ancillary characteristics or behaviour such as charring, dripping, severe shrinkage, erratic burning or afterglow;i) any deviations from the requirements of this docume

43、e test using thermoplastic and cross-linked plastic specimens. Two specimen support holders were evaluated: one using silica rods and the other constructed of nichrome wire. A summary of the FT results are shown in Table B.1.The type of specimen support was not found to affect the results significan

44、tly. Although silica rods had been in use by some laboratories for some time without problems, most laboratories reported difficulties with this type of support and expressed a preference for a nichrome wire support.Table B.1 Summary of roundrobin resultsAll values in degrees CelsiusSpecimen support
